    Summary

    Kai had watched the video of the prisoner struggling, fighting to breathe, drank in the sight of their stretched-out trembling body and listened to the little wheezes picked up by the mics that were supposed to perfectly record confessions. Not that they had been useful for their intended purpose with this one. The higher-ups rarely told Kai anything about who they were hurting, and what they have or haven’t said, and most of the time they didn’t bother to find out on their own, but word had travelled with this one. They hadn’t said anything, of course, but there was no doubt about it and even if there were, there was no mistaking that fire in their eyes. Kai recognized it well, had seen it under them as they pressed knife into flesh and as they pushed rebels to their knees against the wall; they’d seen it in nights where whispered secrets were traded and uneasy laughter shared before they returned to their lies.
